I understand that an object passed to a remote object must either derive from
MarshalByRefObject or be Serializable...and a VB6 object doesn't satisfy this
criteria.

I'm wondering if there are other approachs that would allow me to pass the
VB6 object to the remote object, for example: custom marshaling, interop
marshalling, subclassing Formatter class, etc.

or do I have to abandon Remoting until I convert the VB6 code to VB.NET or C#?

Thanks,
Jim

The only way I know of to do this is to create a MarshalByRefObject wrapper
class that holds your VB6 object and forwards method calls to it. Then just
remote that class.
